The Millwood OHV Area in the Sequoia National Forest offers approximately 25 miles of motorized trails that wind through giant trees at an average elevation of 5,000 feet. The trail system provides diverse terrain ranging from fast, smooth hard-pack sections to rugged, rocky areas with several creek crossings throughout the network. Popular routes include the intermediate-level Goodmill OHV route, which features creek crossings and moderate hill climbs, and the advanced Old Shay Railroad route that is restricted to motorcycles and ATVs only. The area provides both out-and-back routes and loop options that accommodate various skill levels and vehicle types.
The Millwood staging area includes developed facilities with vault toilets, steel fire rings, and tables, plus a few established campsites with additional dispersed camping available on a first-come, first-served basis at no charge. The combination of giant tree scenery and varied terrain makes this area appealing for riders seeking forest trail experiences with technical challenges. OHV maps for the Hume Lake District are available at the District Office in Dunlap, California, which operates Monday through Friday from 8am to 4:30pm, closed on federal holidays. The elevation and forest setting provide cooler riding conditions compared to lower elevation areas, making it suitable for year-round riding when weather permits.Dirt Bike Trail System
